Guidewires are an essential part of the vascular intervention. They are used to access target vessels, cross lesions, and deliver definitive interventional therapy. Peripheral guidewires are designed to navigate vessels to reach a lesion or vessel segment. Once the tip of the device arrives at its destination, it acts as a guide so that larger catheters can rapidly follow for easier delivery to the treatment site. This is an advanced technology in medical industry which is very useful for aged people. It is used in minimally-invasive surgeries which involves much smaller incisions, than the corresponding open surgery procedure. Peripheral guidewires play very important role in the field of peripheral vascular surgeries by providing fast and effective results.

Peripheral guidewire market is mainly driven by increasing demand for minimally invasive surgeries. Another important factor that propels the market growth is increasing worldwide geriatric population. Moreover, growing incidences of neurological, cardiovascular and urology disorders also fuel the market growth. It is important for patients to fully understand the risks of the procedure undergoing laparoscopy and other cardiovascular, neurovascular surgeries. Some risk factors associated with of minimally invasive surgery and preference given to open surgery may hamper the growth of this market.
